Introduction

You can read about the challenge here. I am going to write a sonnet about writing for this challenge.

The music is "Wond'ring Aloud" by Jethro Tull from their album "Aqualung"

Wanderer Wondering In The Word Cloud

๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ๐ŸŒ€๐ŸŒŠ๐ŸŒ…๐ŸŒŠ๐ŸŒ€๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ

I Am In Uncharted Water

The Stars And Compass Are My Tools

On This Unknown Sea So Salty

Under Night Clouds I Feel A Fool

๐ŸŒŠ๐ŸŒ…๐ŸŒŠ

A Canvas Of Clouds In The Night

Craft Slicing To The Horizon

Sun Rise Glow. A Glorious Sight

Ahead Compass Marks My Way Home

๐ŸŒŠ๐ŸŒ…๐ŸŒŠ

Unknown Star Signs Are Heralding

Wild And Free, The Time Is Passing

Moving Toward A Reckoning

This Voyage I'll Soon Be Leaving

๐ŸŒŠ๐ŸŒ…๐ŸŒŠ

Though I Sail In Isolation

I Have Many Destinations

    Oh I so love the last two lines. For alone we came here and alone we sail this vast ocean of life. Such a lovely slice of life in words.
